Sites audio quality

No audio should be compressed under 128 kbps. Because I can clearly hear the difference.

Many sites are recompressing uploads below 64 kbps.

Pornhub seems to stay at 128 kbps.

I agree, mysx, but I´m also pretty sure that you can´t hear the difference above 160kbps, especially not with our kind of recordings, that are not taken in a perfect recording environment. That´s why I usually convert sounds compressed higher down to 160kbps - all other sounds that have to be converted to mp3 are compressed with the original rate.

I understand what you mean but when it's about porn sites I've discovered that most of them don't think about
the audio quality at all. They recompress anything to lowest quality. That's why I like Pornhub best because most
files there are at 128 kbps. Well, at least for now :)

Another site, Redtube, the audio bit rate mode there seems to be variable mostly while the videos at Pornhub mostly is constant, at least of what I've seen so far. I've fond a delicious Lustful babe (fake masturbation but nice body) at Redtube and the sound was too bad (choppy, crispy). Later I found the same video at Pornhub and I was hoping the bit rate mode would be constant but it wasn't. I downloaded the video and converted the audio only to Lame MP3 256 CBR with Avidemux, (MP4v2 Muxer, video copy mode) - and it sounded better :)

MediaInfo of the original:
Bit rate mode : Variable
Bit rate : 152 kb/s
Maximum bit rate : 1 500 kb/s
Channel(s) : 2 channels

Actually there should be no problem with that. I don't know why it was bad on my pc.
However most of the time, here and at some other places the audio bit rate mode use to be constant.

I've discovered that some videos at Pornhub that is 128 kbps wasn't 128 kbps from start.
I loved the videos from IFM many years ago, with great audio quality. Now I've found some of them
at Pornhub but the audio sounds like they are breathing and moaning through a ventilation pipe :roll:

I've seen videos at Pornhub that is claimed to be HD. Even at 720p I'm expecting a better picture - and a better audio quality,
but it's not... Also 720p isn't HD quality always, mostly there's too much compression of the video probably because it's free.
The premium videos should be better though. I don't know if the audio is better as well? Anyone who knows?

However, I'm afraid the videos I'm looking for doesn't have premium quality anyway.

Also converting mp3 audio for example from 32 kbps up to 128 kbps doesn't make any improvement at all.
